About To-do & Task List with random | Surprise Box
Struggling to choose your next task? Surprise Box turns indecision into action. Create lists for work, home, side projects, or hobbies — then let the extension pick a task for you. It’s simple, focused, and private.
We often struggle to start because we overthink before doing anything. With Surprise Box, you get a random task and commit just 30 minutes to it — this small timebox makes it much easier to begin. If you don’t finish the task in time, you can simply send it back to the list and return to it later.
To keep motivation high, reward yourself regularly: after every two tasks, do something pleasant for yourself. You can create a “Joy” list — Surprise Box will also pick a random joy-task for you, which makes it more fun and satisfying to complete.
